Some Famous People called Renford Cogle

Renford Cogle

Renford "Rennie" Cogle (born 20 June 1948), is a singer and songwriter whose career spans more than three decades and about as many continents. His musical career started in 1972 when his friend, the late Delroy "Smooth Operator" Wilson, listened to his music and recorded "You Keep On Running". This was to be the first of many number one hits written by Cogle. Subsequent songs such as "Sweet Rose"; "Ring of Gold"; "Rock It To Me"; "Babylon Policy" and "Passion of Love" became international hit singles and were performed by Tony Brevett and The Melodians.

"Everybody Balling"; "Heart Breaking Love"; "Build Me Up"; "By the Rivers of Babylon"; "It's My Delight" and "Sweet Sensation", performed by Brent Dowe, are among the other hit songs he has written. "Sweet Sensation" was a worldwide success for British group UB40, was featured in EastEnders, a popular British television soap opera, and was recently re-recorded by the Detroit Cobras. Cogle has also written Sharon Blacks "Struggling", Marcia Griffiths "Survival" and Joe Coleman's "The Way I Feel For You".

In 1982 Cogle contacted Polygram Records which is now Universal Music Publishers and signed a contract with them for thirty-nine of his songs. In 1987 the contract with Universal Music Publishers was re-written to include additional songs he had written; by 1997 this contract was finalized.
